Newly discovered microbes living in the peatlands of the Peruvian Amazon could play a dual role in the carbon cycle. These tiny organisms have the potential to either stabilize carbon for storage or release it into the atmosphere as greenhouse gases.
The additions made Amazon the largest corporate purchaser of renewable power, according to BloombergNEF. The company’s total portfolio is split roughly evenly between utility-scale wind and solar farms and on-site solar power projects. In total, it’s enough to power 8.3 million homes, Amazon said.
Complex organisms, thousands of times smaller than a grain of sand, can shape massive ecosystems and influence the fate of Earth's climate, according to a new study.
Some industry observers told ABC News that the ostensible softening toward Trump by big-tech corporations reflects a new business landscape that is both heavily influenced by the president-elect and increasingly defined by the development of energy-intensive artificial intelligence products.
Scientists discovered microbes in Amazon peatlands that control carbon storage. If peatlands stay stable, they store carbon.

While floating solar—the emerging practice of putting solar panels on bodies of water—is promising in its efficiency and its potential to spare agricultural and conservation lands, a new experiment finds environmental trade-offs.
The Frozen Ground Under Threat Permafrost is like Earth's ancient freezer, stretching over vast regions, mainly near the North and South Poles. It holds soil, rocks, and sub-zero water, remaining frozen for two years or more.
Amazon-backed startup Windfall Bio said it successfully scaled production of methane-eating microbes, a milestone in sustainable fertilizer development. Windfall Bio said fermentation of the microbes reached 17,
Having shattered assumptions in the tech sector and beyond about the cost of artificial intelligence, Chinese startup DeepSeek's new chatbot is now roiling another industry: energy companies.
